Wacky West Travel Park

Accessible via Valentine's main drag, Wacky West Travel Park operates as a small RV-focused facility with electric, water, and sewer hookups for rigs up to 45 feet. The park fits into a compact space in town, with some sites positioned directly along the entry road. Owners maintain keyed restroom and shower facilities, though office hours are limited.

Reviewers note the cramped layout accommodates both overnight travelers and longer-term residents. Sites lack significant shade and have limited fire rings and picnic tables. The location puts campers within walking distance of downtown Valentine restaurants and businesses. A cattle yard sits directly behind the property, and sand burrs in the area can affect pets. For those exploring the region, campgrounds around Valentine provide additional options. Reservations are available through the owners.

Small place in an interesting small town

Of all possible days, we landed on Valentine’s Day for a one night stay. Interesting small town. We did find decent food. The RV place is really a dirt parking lot with room for a handful of rigs. Nothing memorable, but a place to stay overnight.

Base camp

Wacky West Travel Park had very nice and helpful owners. Make sure you have the phone number because their office hours are limited so that they can keep up the park. It’s small and a little crowded but serves the purpose of a base camp or overnight location.

I attended a “Sisters on the Fly” event in Valentine, NE and this is were we all met and camped. The owners squeezed us all in and gave us a discount for our stay. One nice thing is you are in the middle of town right off the main drag so you can walk anywhere in town pretty easily.

The restroom and shower are keyed which you receive when you check in. Down side to that I forgot to drop my key in the mail slot when I left and had to go back to do so.

There is electric/water hook up at each site, not much in the way of shade , limitedfire rings and picnic tables. You could tell several of the sites were more towards permanent dwellings and some of the sites sat right on the entry road so you step out your camper door into the road. These sites were stacked so two of our group didn’t even try to unhook their campers.

If you’ve never experienced sand burrs Nebraska has them and they are horrible on dogs feet. The owner of the campground made extra efforts to keep the burrs out of the immediate camping area but my dogs still picked up several. There is a cattle yard directly behind the campground so I’m not sure how it smells when it’s hot, we were there in cold weather so it was not an issue.

Valentine has events going on and the Niobrara River is a main attraction, several of the group did a kayak float and explored the waterfalls along the river. We also walked to dinner within 1/4 mile at an excellent restaurant, Peppermill Steakhouse, worth a visit.

The three stars is due to the location, cramped accommodations and no recreation in the immediate area. However the owners were very accommodating and the facilities were well maintained. I would stay there again. Also I lost the pictures of the campground and Valentine but included the nearby recreation areas.
